Imagine a world in which actively caring for people (AC4P) is the social norm-where interpersonal trust, and cooperative learning is expected at school, at work, at home, throughout the community, and on the road. THE RESULT: nations without wars, communities without violence, organizations without interpersonal conflict, schools without bullying, and families without abuse. This vision of an AC4P world is achievable through persistent promotion and widespread support of an AC4P norm by parents, teachers and coaches, and thought leaders in government, communities, businesses, schools, non-profits, and through "boots on the ground" public engagement. Our educational environments-at all levels-a re critical places to initiate and support an AC4P Movement. This education/training manual shows you how to make this AC4P vision a reality with evidence-based principles from applied behavioral science. Leading-edge lessons are tailored for education. Insightful dialogue-framed questions and proactive exercises are provided for training. Teachers, school administrators, parents, and school resource officers (SROs) who read, discuss, and practice the research-based content in this manual will he well prepared and empowered to initiate and nurture an AC4P culture at their centers of learning.
